For those who are not vigilant, the world can be a terrifyingly unexpected place full with danger and turmoil. It’s a sad fact that this is still the case in modern times, but I suppose certain problems will always arise because they’re an unfavourable aspect of being human.

We’ve worked hard over the years to impart information and wisdom to our readers whenever and wherever we can. Some of the topics we’ve covered include natural signals and indicators to watch out for, as well as the possible meanings of seemingly innocuous items like a water bottle found on your tyre.

Because of this, we believe it is our responsibility to at least spread the word about a possible tactic that thieves may employ to get careless drivers out of their cars late at night. You may be familiar with the “abandoned baby” strategy, but we were not until we came across a widely shared message by a mother who wanted to warn as many people as possible.

To put it clearly, the woman was in a desperate attempt to warn the public about the possible risks involved in pulling over to look into what appeared to be an abandoned pram on the side of the road.

Picture yourself travelling down a pitch-black road when you notice a pram parked on a patch of grass. Most of the time, instinct takes over at that point, and you may slow down to examine more closely. In certain instances, the driver may even get out of the car to check that everything is working properly. And that’s when crooks who are hiding nearby might launch their ambush, according to reports.
